dont want to piss on anyones fire, but when my mate was sat in my car we did a 0-100 run, ap-22 and he sat there with his stopwatch, he got 15ish seconds, ap-22 said 17ish seconds so it can be WAY out, you should get it ap-22d cos from what ive heard yours is a quick one!
lol, however much you rack your brains, i bet you dont find anything that will be anywhere near as good as your clio. been thinking about my next car recently and the ONLY thing that will be a step up from the clio (IMO) is an Audi S3, but they are £15k second hand, and a standard one still...
whoo, wasnt expecting such a response, calm down lads.......................it seems everyone can talk "my car is faster then yours etc." but when it comes down to it...well this post says it all

a bit of a final are you in or out kind of thing, so far there is me, Adi, Paul and the lad with the cup with NoS. meeting at the Texaco garage at the trafford centre @ 11pm on monday night for a bit of a blast around handforths bypasss. going down M60 to cheadle, up the A34 til wilmslow then...
renault gearboxs are poo but we make up for it in the fun department! big 2.9 V6 struggling to keep with us little 2l 16v, oh well, thats the difference between fun and build quality i suppose! see you at york!
had the willy box mate, my old valver did only have 25k on the clock but the gearbox was even worse then this one! depends how you drive it i suppose:oops:
defo not the clutch mikey, in mine its worn synchros. the car has had a new clutch recently, the gears feel notchy though and refuse to go in sometimes so its defo the g/box!
no but they will sell super unleaded, is this being taken seriously then? hopefully i wont have to use third alot and hopefully it will be dry and we should be in for a good evening! paddy you comin?
see ya there 2! convoy form N/W being organised in the meetings and events section! do you really need a crash helmet or will it be provided and anyone know yorks phone number?
gearbox is on its way out, now do i.
a)take it in to be repaired ASAP as it may cost me very little(around£350 all in)
b)hope it lasts through york RWYB moday after next
c)just drive it til it fails completely?(£450 re-con box fitted)
tempted to take it in after RWYB but at the same time...
a crashe helmet? where the fook do i get one of them from? and £10 entrance fee and £15 to get in? aint theat the same thing? original question again, will a provisional and test pass certificate do?
100bhp of Nos? hmm, may lose this one then!? so monday night at 11pm Texaco at the trafford centre. my gearbox is on the way out and im not using 3rd gear til york RWYB the following monday, excuses excuses eh?
i have in my possesion a valid provisonal driving license and a test pass certificate, will york let me run? cheers in advance!
oh BTW i just managed a 14.78 on the AP22, you better run little children:devilish: that is if the gearbox holds on til next week!
booked my car in today at the body shop for full bonnet and bumper re-spray(winter use has taken its toll), im getting it de-badged and vent colour coded at the same time, and flushed tailgate at rear, just cos i reckon it will go with the whole clean theme of the car. £350 all in, paint labour...
would it be better if we changed it to sunday day? but handforths by-passs will be no good then, what about the road that you guys used last time craggy?
so me, Adi, Paul and....jesus can we have a little more input please guys! if its just gonna be a few of us there is no point! 11pm at trafford centre this monday!

this is some other arranged thrash, i reckon we will be sweet down handforths bypasss, no police, national speed limit, straights and roundabouts, no cameras, really quiet at night. if we lay down some rules then we should have a safe and fun blast. This monday is our best bet cos we want to get...

lmao! mikey, the place Adi was telling you about is called lancashire transmission, they quoted me under £500 to fit a fully re-con gearbox to my car, exchanging my old one, its all guarenteed and that, and he said he could do it in a day, he was recomended by the guy who does all my servicing...
